Harriet Beecher Stowe grew up in a family in which her seven brothers were expected to be successful preachers and the four girls were never to speak in public. But slavery made Harriet so angry she couldn't keep quiet. Although she used a pen rather than her voice to convince people of the evils of slavery, she became more famous than any of her brothers. She firmly believed that words could make change, and by writing Uncle Tom's Cabin, Harriet Beecher Stowe hastened the Civil War and changed the course of America history. I really wanted to know more about Harriet Beecher Stowe after reading "Uncle Tom's Cabin," but this book while centering around Harriet, also informed me about her whole family. I was thankful that there was a family tree chart in the book and referred to it often. I'm not sure how many children read biographies for fun but this book would be a nice one for when they have a school assignment to read a biography. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
